Bentley's seen eights come and go; the 8-litre coach of 1930, the cloth-seated Eight "training Bentley" of the 1980s, the Le Mans-winning Speed 8 prototype of 2003. Two of those even had V8 engines, like the new Continental GT V8. Can the more-fuel-efficient octomill match the mighty W12? Let's find out. »7/18/12 10:30am 7/18/12 10:30am

When someone asks if you're a God, you say "YES!" When Bentley asks if you'd like to go lead the starting lap of the Nürburgring 24 in the CEO's Continental GT Supersports while it's being driven by former DTM champ Eric Van De Poele, you say "Hell YES!" »6/05/12 2:00pm 6/05/12 2:00pm

The term "suitcase car" was somehow lost in translation with the "Bentley Suitcase Croco." It's a Bentley Continental GT covered in African buffalo leather embossed and painted to look like crocodile skin. Oh Russia, you so crazy! »3/22/10 1:00pm 3/22/10 1:00pm

This
Bentley Continental GT »11/03/08 3:40pm 11/03/08 3:40pm is either done up in a jungle camo paint scheme or a new interpretation of the RISK game board. Regardless, it certain to draw far more attention than its paint would suggest, blending into the cityscape about as well as if it were fluorescent orange. Mottled shades of gray might have been…

Refreshed for the autumn season, this is the latest iteration of the polarizing
ASI-tuned Bentley Continental GTR »10/14/08 5:30pm 10/14/08 5:30pm. Similar to the car will be showing off at , the GTR is an 800 HP monster with intimidatingly tasteless styling to match. The only thing we want this for is to lovingly . None of this comes as a big…

We've always had a love/hate relationship with the Bentley Continental GT. On the one hand, it's a staggeringly powerful freight train of a car that will do everything but powder your behind (and not catch on fire). On the other hand, it just doesn't have the character of a Bentley; it seems more noveau riche than… »6/05/08 9:40am 6/05/08 9:40am

Having had its way with Italian cars, Zagato's coachworks business returned its attentions to a British-German hooligan — the Bentley Continental GT. (Remember the Zagato Aston DB7? Sure you do.) What they came up with is the two-tone Bentley GTZ Zagato we first showed you last week. As is their wont, Zagato made the… »3/04/08 5:40am 3/04/08 5:40am

The guys at Dubspeed Driven skipped the press intro for the Bentley Continental GT Speed in Spain, opting instead for posing as one of the super-rich customers in the market for a luxury GT. We're not sure what's funnier, the gigantic winged "B" ice sculpture, the spokesmodel or the fact that they give people the… »11/29/07 9:45am 11/29/07 9:45am

It's the first bentley to hit 200 miles per hour (202 mph, to be exact) right off the shelf. It's a pretty big shelf, though, because the Bentley Speed GT is a bruiser of a car. It packs a more-than-sufficient 600 horses lolling beneath its bonnet, also making it the most powerful production Bentley ever built. The… »8/01/07 8:08am 8/01/07 8:08am

LEW Design's motto is the "all imaginable is practicable." Teutonic homeoteleutons aside, the company's tuner Bentley Continental GT splits the difference between the Bugatti Veyron and its smaller, less-demonstrative cousin, mainly by way of custom grillwork. It also gets a 100 hp boost to 650 hp, inching the Bent… »12/15/06 9:52am 12/15/06 9:52am

We wannabe upper crusty anglophile types are already busy drooling over the allure from the double-decadent Havana coupe. Now Bentley springs this on us? As the revitalized German British marquee nears the brand-imploding 9,000 cars a year threshold, they are going to need new steel to maintain their momentum. Wait,… »11/28/06 4:28pm 11/28/06 4:28pm

We're not sure if they can turn the world on with a smile or not, but MTM knows how to heat up their German-British mates. With their latest tuning kit for the Bentley Continental GT, the MTMers created the fastest Bentley ever, with a top speed of 205 mph recorded on Italy's Nardo test track. All that speediness… »7/06/06 12:37pm 7/06/06 12:37pm
